These are photos of Alex Pettyfer at last night’s premiere of Beastly. Alex arrived late to the premiere, but not because he’s a surly douche. Apparently, there was a fire at his house, and he had to wait with the firefighters for a short time, and that’s why he was late. According to Radar, the fire started in Alex’s detached garage, and while firefighters took care of it, “Pettyfer walked the red carpet, did interviews and introduced the film at the premiere, but left after a short time presumably to deal with the fire.” Now… considering what everyone says about Alex being a “psycho,” could it be that he maybe started this fire? For attention? For sympathy? Just because he wants to watch the world burn? Thoughts?

Anyway, this week the tabloids are full of musings on Alex’s “psycho” behavior. He has a reputation as an actor with a short fuse who “goes ballistic anytime someone says something he doesn’t agree to”. And the stories about his breakup with Dianna Agron keep coming – read this In Touch Weekly with a sinister frame of mind:

In Touch first broke the news that Dianna Agron and Alex Pettyfer ended their year-long romance, but now comes word that Alex showed up on the Glee set – begging Dianna for another chance.

“She wouldn’t see him,” says the insider. “And she told other people, ‘We’re over!’ Alex was always really controlling, and she finally had enough.”

Dianna, 24, was spotted wearing a diamond band on her left ring finger at recent press events. But the insider says, “The relationship is definitely off… and so is the engagement.”

So he shows up at her work and begs and demands to see her? Yeah… seems kind of sketchy. In addition to this seemingly innocuous story, Us Weekly’s print edition has further revelations about Alex‘s bad behavior. In addition to Dianna finding Alex to be “psycho,” Us Weekly also notes that Alex “has been losing his sh-t” after the breakup, even going so far as to make threats to Dianna over the phone: “He was on the phone with her and he absolutely lost it, screaming at her.”

Sources also say that while Dianna and Alex were together, Dianna’s personality changed from sweet good-girl to diva. In their relationship, “he calls all of the shots… he made her fire her entire management team for no apparent reason… Dianna was completely Stepford around him… she was under his spell, she was such a doormat and she could end up with him again.” An insider says that Alex had the same effect on his previous ex, Emma Roberts.

Meanwhile, Us Weekly also reports that during production of Beastly, Alex was trying to seduce Vanessa Hudgens off-camera, and she wasn’t into it. A source says: “She wasn’t interested, but he continued to pursue her. It got so bad that Vanessa couldn’t talk to him anymore. She hated him!” Vanessa wore this Julien Macdonald dress with a long train – I don’t really care for it, and it’s too tight in the bust. Also: isn’t it interesting that they didn’t pose together on the red carpet?

And while I don’t really believe all of these accounts, I definitely believe he has a tendency toward the douche. Someone needs to teach this kid a lesson. Maybe now that “I Am Number Four” has had a below-expectations opening, someone will take him down a peg or seven. He’s 20 and as my late father would say, he’s “gotten too damn big for them britches.”

@ Rita: You crack me up.
I’m not familiar with him, so I’m not sure if he always sports that scruff or if he’s trying to cover up the mole that looks like it needs to be checked. It reminds me of Richard E. Grant’s sinister talking boil in How to Get Ahead in Advertising.

The whole thing with Dianna was for publicity. So all these “sources” I’d take with a grain of salt. There’s nothing true about them. Yeah he’s probably too big for his britches but the whole psycho thing is just to make his milk toast ass seem more “dangerous”. I’m sorry but you can put a leather jacket with a skull and cross bones on a cake…but it’ll just be a cake in a leather jacket.

I completely agree with you! While he is completely sexy, I don’t think he’s all a bad guy. I think that people take out the negatives in him, and multiply them to be 10x bigger than what they really are.

I’m still not buying these reports. There’s been so many blind items about Dianna and Alex’s relationship being fake! It seems like she’s trying to drum up publicity – by any means necessary. I’m surprised Alex isn’t “fighting back” in the press, since these reports are throwing him under the bus. Maybe he wants a “bad boy” reputation? I don’t see how this is helping him, but these stories are definitely helping her look good.

I read somewhere once that men with a pronounced eyebrow ridge area are more prone to be violent and aggressive. Chris Brown has that same feature but of course it could be bullshit. However I think its a bit premature and unfair to label a young actor primarily on looks and hearsay, speculation and gossip aside. Also, scientically, his brain is still growing, not until 25 will he have a typical adult brain. So maybe we can judge him fully then

I totally agree with you!-just because one website made up some crap about him suddenly everyone beleives he’s a ‘doosh’, I personally beleive it was a publicity stunt on argons half. I mean why would he set fire to own home, it’s ridiculous! He’s isn’t ‘too big for his birches’ he just dosn’t pretend to be something he’s not what’s so bad about that?!

He has a touch of the Ryan Philippe’s about him. You know the ‘I don’t like women who are strong and more successful than me and so I’ll control them by being a mean and cruel bastard’ type thing. Just a feeling though.

When you said “isn’t it interesting that they didn’t pose together on the red carpet?” I thought of when they asked Callan McAuliffe (his I Am Number Four co-star) on Twiiter what it was like working with Alex Pettyfer and Jake Abel (other I Am Number Four co-star) Callan said something along the line “it was fun working with Jake”. He didn’t mention Alex. Is like he didn’t like working with Alex. Check his Twitter history! So maybe Alex was acting the same (not listening to the director, throwing hissy fits, bitching, etc.) when he filmed Beastly.

What a bunch of scumbags post to this site. But it seems to be written by a scumbag, so it follows. To accuse someone you’ve never met of of being “a douche” is your own opinion. To accuse him of being “a psycho, stalker, predator and pyromaniac” is actually slander, especially when your reportage consists of reading tabloid magazines. Alex really out to sue your ass.

@Chris – Oh for God’s sake, pull the pool cue out of your ass, wouldja? No one is chiseling any of this into a stone tablet & descending the mountain.

The writers here on Celebitchy are always honest when information is coming from ‘less-than-reputable’ sources. Everyone is allowed to consider the rumors & draw their own conclusion. I doubt Alex gives a flying fuck what any of us has to say, & if he does… he’s in the wrong business.

I don’t know Alex personally, of course, but from every account that I’ve seen of him (and I’ve seen a lot), he DOES seem to be a bit of a jerk. And even though it could all be rumors, there’s GOT to be a reason why tons of people seem to think he’s a jerk. I mean, you don’t see this kind of stuff being said about, say, Logan Lerman, do you? And for good reason. He’s a sweet guy.

And as for Vanessa…the dress is poorly-fitted on her, and is kind of strange looking to start with. She herself looks okay, but she needs more petite dresses to fit her frame.

From my personal opionion…i think this is a load of crap! He’s made something of his life, he’s not a ‘physco’ don’t you think that someone from hollywood would of picked up on it by now?!+ To the remark of his birthmark who cares he’s a gorgous man and hunny i doubt very much that your perfect you know millions of people have scars/imperfections and your picking up on a tiny mark. I don’t understand what everyones problem is with him…you read this like it’s the truth , anyone could of made this up?! I know people wont agree with what i said but i’m standig up for what i beleive in.

Ladies and gentlemen, you haven’t got one good idea what his life is like, ok? don’t you go making shit up and spreading it because if that happened to you you’d either be in deep shit with all of this Holly Wood stuff and then they’ll spread the same type of shit that crawled out of your mouthes to people who run magazines and so on, if that happeneds then it’ll be taken further to Tv news such as E News and E!
So bitches please, you ain’t got No fucking right to make this type of shit up okay? If you have a problem go see a doctor about it and tell that mother fucker whats wrong, or; you can get a chair and wait with the rest of the bitches and wait till i give a god damn fuck. Point is, he’s a great actor and he’s something that your not, and jealous of. Fucking rumors gets on my nerves, just coz’ he’s accomplished something you want or dream to have all you can do is put him down and make false occupations about. Sick idiots, grow a pair and get a life. For me? I’m watching wild child. And if anyone comments back shit to this comment I swear they’re gonna’ get what they deserve. Shit stuffed in their mouthes. Pricks.
